Canal du
Midi crosses the river Cesse near Le Somail, and Mirepeiset

The Canal du
Midi crosses the Cesse Aqueduct (built 1689 - 90)

The tow paths
of the Canal du Midi provide perfect bicycle paths for all times of
the year - the magnificent plane trees providing protection against
wind and sun. Here near the port of Le Somail (Boat
Rentals),
the river crosses the River Cesse (where in contradiction to the name
the Cesse pools are good for swimming or paddling!, or building dams
for the kid in all of us).
